i terminated the obstacle avoiding project because i want
to do some thing else. i am now working on a robotic arm
for a science fair. the special thing about the robot is
that it is going to be controlled us ing gloves. it is
quite simple when you think about it because it uses push
buttons. each motor is going to have a forward and reverse
circuit. i will probably put some LEDs just for show.
If you have any suggestions please email me:

I'm working on another robot. A six legged non contact
obstacle avoiding telepresence robot. The camera is a
wireless mini cam about the size of 5 quarters stacked on
top of each other. The obsacle avoiding system is from my
little brother's toy car. the robot uses 2 dc motors. I'm
in the process of makining all of putting the gears in the
plastic chassis. The plastic is from the stylish clear
clipboards for writing notes. I will keep you up to date
with my project.

I just finished my robot and it is great. i wired a sound
sensor with a walkie talkie and my robot is controlled
verbally with the walkie talkie. the only bad thing is that
it only goes for ward and reverse.
